AFROPUNK Brooklyn announced the lineup for its 2023 summer festival, featuring Jazmine Sullivan and Flying Lotus as headliners. The organizers also announced that the weekend event will be held in a new location in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.
The producer says that there are tracks he's yet to hear from the late wordsmith.
All these years, and we’re still curious about Dr. Dre’s now mythical album Detox. According to Flying Lotus, the project is very real and he actually heard it.
After hearing of Phife Dawg’s passing, Mac Miller released a timely song as a homage to the legendary A Tribe Called Quest MC titled “5 Foot Assassin: Larry Fisherman Tribute.”
Wiz Khalifa didn’t have a humble bone in his body the day he recorded his braggadocios new cut “King of Everything.”
If you’re a rap fan, it’s a great chance that today’s task involved discussing, dissecting, or doing a combination of the two to fully grasp Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp A Butterfly. Part of the album’s appeal is its lush sonic composition, the background of which producer-rapper Flying Lotus broke down in great detail.
Flying Lotus, a recent addition to BBC Radio 1’s lineup of resident DJs, commemorated his first night at his post by exclusively premiering an unreleased version of the Kendrick Lamar-assisted groove “Never Catch Me.”
Per usual, a bevy of rap visuals from the likes of Mike Will Made-It to Flying Lotus released between yesterday and today. And because Hip-Hop Wired loves you, we decided to package them all here for your enjoyment.
Flying Lotus is known for making off-kilter, ethereal productions, so teaming with DOOM only makes sense. Such is the case on “Masquatch.”Â
As previously reported, the remastered Grand Theft Auto V has officially released. Featuring a reconfigured soundtrack, listeners receive a lot of new music, including a Flying Lotus track called “Medication Meditation,” featuring Krayzie Bone of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony.
The musicality of Flying Lotus cannot be questioned or ignored by lovers of sonically distinct tunes. A full display of the West Coast producer’s talents can be heard on his new album You’re Dead!.
Honestly, any video this week was more heartwarming than watching Big Pun’s mama rob a bank without a mask on. That being said, The Wrap Up: Hip-Hop Wired’s Top 10 Videos Of The Week is giving off the same type of vibe that teller probably got.
